I read in interesting article in the Washington Post that I thought I would share.
Most babies in the United States are born on a weekday, with the highest percentages delivered between 8 a.m. to 9 a.m., and from noon to 1 p.m., according to a report published Friday by the National Center for Health Statistics.
My Mom Told me that I was born on a Monday at 2:55am
in Montreal General Hospital.
I was born at 11:59 pm. I know this because, when the doctor recorded my time of birth, my mother remarked that I was early, "She wasn't due until tomorrow." Since it was only a minute's difference, the doctor offered to make my birthday the expected one (the 22nd) instead of the unexpected one. (the 21st). Luckily, she declined, and I have this story to help me remember my birth time.
Why Yes. Yes I Do. And it means alot to me. 1:11am almost 56 years ago.( In Hollywood, Ca ) Easy to remember ! It means the Angels are with me !
I'm a twin, I was born at 11:10 am, she was first at 10:55, so what was I doing for 15 minutes?? no idea, but I was not expected to make it, so they gave her the name "Maude" lol, glad I waited.
@twshield haha, so true, in real life, NOT a Diva tho
Idk but I know it was in the middle of a storm.
Well, I can not verify that belief, but it does coincide with my situation. @twshield
It's on my original birth certificate. Doing this now from memory I think I was born on Sunday at 12.06 AM. If so that would make my middle name "Odour" in Luo language which is someone born at midnight. OK, I'm not African nor am I Luo. We will leave that mystery for Obama who had a USA Kansas mother and an African Luo father.
I was born at 7:38pm Friday March 13th, 1964
Friday the 13th ! Does that affect you at all ?
@flowerchild62 explains a lot
in a time where being born out of wedlock was not good at all
I don't know what day of the week I was born, but it was just after midnight so I could be born on my sister's birthday.
@twshield *Tuesday Old English T?wesdæg (pronounced [?ti?wezdæj]), meaning "Tiw's day". Tiw (Norse Týr) was a one-handed god associated with single combat and pledges in Norse mythology and also attested prominently in wider Germanic paganism. The name of the day is also related to the Latin name dies Martis, "Day of Mars".
I was born on a Saturday, not sure on the time but think it was early morning. My daughter was born on a Monday at 4 pm. Both of us outside the "norm", in more ways than one. LOL
I'm trying to understand the times they are suggesting. We have a 3 hr time difference from coast to coast. How does that work? And aren't there many more "scheduled" births now? So the timing would be on a surgery schedule. IDK, the time window seems too small.
